Eight things we learned at Quaker Activist Gathering 2017

Updated 27 October 2017

There has been a groundswell of activism in 2017, as people respond to threats to women's rights, freedom of movement and our climate, among many other things. As the government are caught up in the detail of enacting Brexit, we're seeing a shift away from lobbying towards less conventional means of influencing Britain's course.

5 reasons to go to Quaker meeting (number 5 is a surprise)

Updated 9 July 2026

Quaker meeting for worship involves sitting together with others, either in a room or online, and trying to access stillness and silence in order to listen deeply. The aim is to hear what love and truth are saying to us, which many Quakers understand as God speaking in our hearts. That's pretty vague, though. Why specifically might you want to try meeting for worship for the first time?

After the Gathering: 11 ways to live out our Quaker faith in the world

Updated 17 February 2020

I left Yearly Meeting Gathering with a sense of hope for the future. It took me a while to identify this, given that the daily news discourages a feeling as impertinent as hope. This Yearly Meeting Gathering was the culmination of a three-year arc looking at living out Quaker faith in the world, and it felt like many seeds for change were sown.

Telling a better story: Tax and climate justice

Updated 4 July 2026

“[We] need to tell a broad story about the benefits of a just system of taxation, and to have the freedom to imagine what a holistic system may look like."Economics & Sustainability Subcommittee, minute ES 18/34. November 2018The climate emergency is not just a crisis of emissions, but a crisis of justice, both globally and locally. Climate chaos is deepening, and so are the chasms of economic inequality and social division. We desperately need a transition away from fossil fuels that is fast, fair and properly funded. We know that the costs of climate inaction would be catastrophic, in financial, ecological and human terms. And yet we are hearing increasingly strident voices claiming that we cannot afford to act.

Updated 5 February 2026

Quaker meeting for worship is meant to be about as simple as it's possible for a gathering of people to be. There's an appointed time and place so that we can actually get together, but after that, nothing is planned.

Do Quakers still exist?

Updated 2 April 2026

Quakers very much exist today. Personally, I don't usually have to say so: I'm a Quaker, many of my family and friends are Quakers, I worship in a Quaker meeting, and I work for a Quaker organisation, so it's too obvious to mention in most of my life. But it's a very reasonable question if you've only encountered Quakers in history.

Women's preaching still justified

Updated 31 March 2026

Margaret Fell (1614-1702) was a key figure in the development of the early Quaker movement, handling money, letters, and practical support for people who felt led to preach the Quaker message. Quakers were criticised for allowing women to speak, and so – while she was in prison for allowing a Quaker meeting to be held in her home – Fell wrote a pamphlet, Women's speaking justified. In it she went through Biblical examples to show that women could, and always had, shared the word of God.
